[Zim-wiki] Zim 0.62 still has export bug? (template parameters?)

2014-10-09 Thread Joseph Reagle
This [1] issue still exists. The culprit is that 0.61 warns about existing directories and refuses to export unless they are empty or the user uses `--overwrite`. Even when I manually invoked export with overwrite it failed with errors about variables not found... [1]:
